Second Docking station

Support & Solutions
1

Hi
I have a fair-play large yard with two zones distant from each other. To avoid Yarbo wasting time to go from one side to the other of the yard to recharge, I have purchased a second docking station. But installing the new docking station it has erased the existing docking station.
How could I make the two docking stations, one on each zone of my yard, coexisting and make Yarbo pick the closest one to its position to automatically recharge ?

This is something others (such as myself) have asked for.

Unfortunately we’ve been told that currently only one docking station can be active at a time.

Maybe there are new developments I’m not aware of. Anyone else want to chime in?

Currently only one can be active at a time. It sounds like you did a “Reinstall Docking Station” when you installed the second dock. If you go into your yard and edit map. Click the + and you can add another dock. You can then enable and disable them as you deem fit. Hopefully they can expand this to support going to multiple at some point in the future.

Thanks for the tips. Looking forward for this new development that will give more flexibility and play time to Yarbo.

@bryan.wheeler That’s a great idea! Do you know if it made it into the suggestion box?

I think so. @Yarbo-Forum can hopefully confirm this. I’m sure it’s on the back log if so.

Can you switch the active charging station mid run? Pause and activate?

Hmm. I don’t think so, but maybe!

Currently, we do not have a clear roadmap for this feature in the short term. However, I understand how this could significantly improve efficiency for users with relatively large yards. I’ll make sure to pass your interest in this feature along to our product team for further consideration. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

@ken.w.gregory and @bryan.wheeler - You guys are awesome. I can’t wait to get to this forum for in the mornings for the free comedy act. Well, maybe not free, $5K ticket to the party.

Oh, and I’ll take a complementary charger for testing as well please!
